THIS ONE'S FOR THE RULE BREAKERS.
The Barefoot & Branded podcast is for creatives who are done playing it
safe.
Around here, we don’t play by the rules—we build from instinct, challenge the industry nonsense, and get loud about what makes us different.
Each episode dives headfirst into the messy, magnetic, and often misunderstood process of building a brand that doesn’t just “look good,” but feels true.

You’re one Canva template away from a full-blown creative identity crisis.
You’d rather launch messy than stay stuck in ‘someday.’
You’ve got opinions, a little chaos, and a brand that refuses to fit the mold.
You didn’t start a business to be digestible—you started it to disrupt.
This show isn’t for everyone, but it is for you if…
A brand storyteller, creative director, and multi-hyphenate entrepreneur who’s built a career coloring outside the lines.
